ABSTRACT Urban expansion has exerted both direct and indirect impacts on natural land and ecosystem services it supports, driven by increasing population and food demand, yet these underlying pathways remain insufficiently distinguished. Here, we quantified the losses of soil conservation services (water erosion regulation and sandstorm prevention) and

Screening of Cultivatable Indigenous Fungi which Responsible for Decomposing of Rice Straw
The experiment was conducted to screen potentials indigenous fungi for rapid decomposing of rice straw. Sevenisolates of dominant fungi were isolated from the burying rice straw on the 2.5 cm soil depth after 30 days incubationon the paddy fields.

ABSTRACT Land‐use changes related to cultivated land significantly affect the regional carbon budget in major grain‐producing regions, yet the ecological network characteristics of cultivated land carbon flows remain insufficiently understood. This study developed an integrated framework that combined ecological network analysis with spatial analysis ...

On The Disintegration of Rice Straw
The author has investigated the effects of boiling with water and disintegration with alkaline solutions on the chemical composition and nutritive value of rice straw. The results are summarised as follows. 1) The starch value of the straw in dry matter was about 20%, which agrees with the result of Prof. T. KATAYAMA's experiments. 2) The boiling for 3
